Peter Alonso Smacks Game-Tying Home Run In Win
6 years agoAfter Jeurys Familia allowed a pair of runs to score, coughing up a New York Mets lead, the offense needed to step up late. Rookie Peter Alonso was the man for the job, as he drilled a game-tying home run in the eighth, giving his club new life as they traverse a perilous time during their season. While it was Alonso's lone hit of the game, it spearheaded the club's late comeback and eventual victory. The 24-year-old cooled off during the latter stages of April and has not been successful this month, batting just .200. On Tuesday, however, his one hit was more than plenty.
